Instructions: Add [1/2 cup] water, milk, egg, butter, salt, bread flour, sugar, herb, and yeast to bread machine pan in the order suggested by manufacturer. Select dough/manual cycle. When cycle is complete, remove dough from machine to a lightly floured surface.

Bake at 375 F for 12 to 15 minutes or until done.
